African Institutes of Public Administration: New Challenges, New Role, New Perspectives

The Third Pan-African Conference of Ministers of Civil Service, entitled “African Institutes of Public Administration: New Challenges, New Role, New Perspectives”, which took place in Windhoek, Namibia, on 5 and 6 February 2001, provided an opportunity to look at how the Institutes of Public Administration can most effectively contribute to the debate and policy on development. The Conference was hosted by the Government of Namibia and organized jointly by CAFRAD and the United Nations Department of Economic and Social Affairs. A total of 41 countries and 6 international organizations participated in the Conference. The highlight of the Conference was the adoption of the Charter for the Public Service in Africa, which sets the principles for the public service and establishes standards for professionalism, conduct and ethics in the public service. Africa is the first region in the world to adopt such a charter.
